1988 Chateau Lafite-Rothschild Bordeaux - 94 pts!
The 1988 Lafite continues to offer persuasive evidence that it is the wine of the Medoc as well as a top candidate for the wine of the vintage. Much deeper in color than the 1989 the 1988 has the classic Lafite bouquet of cedar subtle herbs dried pit fruits and cassis. Extremely concentrated with brilliantly focused flavors and huge tannins this backward yet impressively endowed Lafite-Rothschild does not enjoy the acclaim of the 1982 1986 1989 and 1990 but do not be surprised to see it rivaling those wines in 15-20 years. The wine of the vintage? RP
